How much light is blocked by the shatterproof coating?

0

Only 1% visible light is lost through our standard fluorescent lamp coating which is maintained throughout lamp life. Most other products will typically experience 8-10% but as they age this increases due to the yellowing of the coating. For H.ID & Incandescent lamps the light loss is 5% across the visible spectrum which is also maintained throughout the lamps service life. UVA Insect Lamps achieve a 97% transmission at the critical wavelength of attraction and UVC Germicidal Lamps around 75% in the short wave regions.
